So as you know, I was looking for a gaming PC a few weeks ago for my birthday and the budget was £450.
As I couldn't find anything which was a great price at £450, I raised my budget to £550.
When looking for a PC, I contacted a friend who helped me out a got me a great PC for £339. Which includes
GIGABYTE Z68 Motherboard
i7 2600K @3.4GHz (quad with hyperthreading / turbo-boost up to 3.7)
8GB RAM (Corsair Vengeance)
120GB SSD
2TB HDD
ASUS GTX 560ti 1GB
Windows 10 Pro Genuine (installed on SSD)
However, instead of using that shitty GPU, I bought a Nvidia 970 GTX for £150.
So all together I paid £489
For the Gaming PC, and the graphics card.
The person on eBay threw his Corsair K40 Keyboard and his RAT7 mouse (which I'm going to sell as I already have a mouse) and his Samsung 24" 1080p monitor for free.
So did I take a W or L?
